Let $\mathbb{Q}_{k,n}$ be the set of the connected $k$-uniform weighted hypergraphs with $n$ vertices, where $k,n\geq 3$. For a hypergraph $G\in \mathbb{Q}_{k,n}$, let $\mathcal{A}(G)$, $\mathcal{L} (G)$ and $\mathcal{Q} (G)$ be its…
Let $G=(V,E)$ be a finite graph. For $v\in V$ we denote by $G_v$ the subgraph of $G$ that is induced by $v$'s neighbor set. We say that $G$ is $(a,b)$-regular for $a>b>0$ integers, if $G$ is $a$-regular and $G_v$ is $b$-regular for every…
In this paper we show that for integers $s\geq2$, $t\geq1$, any co-edge-regular graph which is cospectral with the $s$-clique extension of the $t\times t$-grid is the $s$-clique extension of the $t\times t$-grid, if $t$ is large enough.…
Let $G(V, E)$ be a simple connected graph, with $|E| = \epsilon.$ In this paper, we define an edge-set graph $\mathcal G_G$ constructed from the graph $G$ such that any vertex $v_{s,i}$ of $\mathcal G_G$ corresponds to the $i$-th…
We describe algebraic curves $ X : F(x, y) = 0 $ defined over $\overline{\mathbb{Q}}$ that satisfy the following property: there exist a number field $k$ and an infinite set $S \subset k$ such that, for every $y \in S$, the roots of the…
Recently, a relation between Schreier-type sets and Tur\'{a}n graphs was discovered. In this note, we give a combinatorial proof and obtain a generalization of the relation. Specifically, for $p, q\ge 1$, let $$\mathcal{A}_q :=…
The graph $G$ is said to be strongly regular with parameters $(n,k,\lambda,\mu)$ if the following conditions hold: (1) each vertex has $k$ neighbours; (2) any two adjacent vertices of $G$ have $\lambda$ common neighbours; (3) any two…
A simple topological graph is $k$-quasiplanar ($k\geq 2$) if it contains no $k$ pairwise crossing edges, and $k$-planar if no edge is crossed more than $k$ times. In this paper, we explore the relationship between $k$-planarity and…
Let $q$ be a prime power such that $q\equiv 1\pmod{4}$. The Paley graph of order $q$ is the graph with vertex set as the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ and edges defined as, $ab$ is an edge if and only if $a-b$ is a non-zero square in…
This paper generalizes and unifies the existing spectral bounds on the $k$-independence number of a graph, which is the maximum size of a set of vertices at pairwise distance greater than $k$. The previous bounds known in the literature…
When $I$ is the edge ideal of a graph $G$, we use combinatorial properities, particularly Property $P$ on connectivity of neighbors of an edge, to classify when a binomial sum of vertices is a regular element on $R/I(G)$. Under a mild…
Let $G$ be a finite group and $\text{cd}(G)$ denote the character degree set for $G$. The prime graph $\Delta(G)$ is a simple graph whose vertex set consists of prime divisors of elements in $\text{cd}(G)$, denoted $\rho(G)$. Two primes…
A graph $G=(V,E)$ is called an expander if every vertex subset $U$ of size up to $|V|/2$ has an external neighborhood whose size is comparable to $|U|$. Expanders have been a subject of intensive research for more than three decades and…
There has been a great deal of attention recently to graphs whose vertex set is a group, defined using the group structure. (The commuting graph, where two elements are joined if they commute, is the oldest and most famous example.) The…
Let $S$ be an $n$-dimensional vector space over the finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$, where $q$ is necessarily a prime power. Denote $K_q(n,k)$ (resp. $J_q(n,k)$) to be the \emph{$q$-Kneser graph} (resp. \emph{Grassmann graph}) for $k\geq 1$…
We consider Stanley--Reisner rings $k[x_1,...,x_n]/I(\mc{H})$ where $I(\mc{H})$ is the edge ideal associated to some particular classes of hypergraphs. For instance, we consider hypergraphs that are natural generalizations of graphs that…
Defining distances over finite fields formally by $||x-y||:=(x_1-y_1)^2+\cdots + (x_d-y_d)^2$ for $x,y\in \mathbb{F}_q^d$, distance problems naturally arise in analogy to those studied by Erd\H{o}s and Falconer in Euclidean space. Given a…
Let $G$ be a finite group and construct a graph $\Delta(G)$ by taking $G\setminus\{1\}$ as the vertex set of $\Delta(G)$ and by drawing an edge between two vertices $x$ and $y$ if $\langle x,y\rangle$ is cyclic. Let $K(G)$ be the set…
A graph $G$ is said to be $k$-extendable if every matching of size $k$ in $G$ can be extended to a perfect matching of $G$, where $k$ is a positive integer. We say $G$ is $1$-excludable if for every edge $e$ of $G$, there exists a perfect…
Let $G$ be a graph. We denote by $c(G)$, $\alpha(G)$ and $q(G)$ the number of components, the independence number and the signless Laplacian spectral radius ($Q$-index for short) of $G$, respectively. The toughness of $G$ is defined by…
